At least thats how It loosed to Wallace Reed during the afternoon. But there are still olentv ol posts to be tilled. And plenty of work to do. Maybe people are Just more in terested in the political war than thev are in the dangerously poten tial flareup of world war three. Or will It be lour? The big question is: Is Russia crying wolf? If they aren't then "operation skywatch" will only serve the pur of ffivlne vou advance notice that vou are about to be blown to bloody bits. If they are then precautions such as this will do more than all the filibustering in world councils to keep the power hungry Reds sim mering a home. ' You and I. as the American peo ple, will have to decide what we want to do about it. We'll have to decide which Is the more Impor tant: To keep up the American way of life, protect our freedom and remain a head-high, proud race. , willing to battle for what we want and believe In or to go along the rosy path of carefree "nobody ever had It so good" life. keeD the hridge club membership full, keep the taverns running full blast and dope off In general.

According to the official Survey of India computation old Everest a few vears ago was 29.002 feet high. (Tall in The Sky) But now It Is officially measured as reaching up 29.610 feet.

Seventeen, Woman's By RELMAN MORIN (For HAL BOYLE) NEW YORK Wt The flying (aucer story, you know. Is by no means a new one. About 30 years ago. a man named Charles Fort rounded up and published a whole series of reports about mysterious objects In the sky. He ' said his sources, mainly, were newspapers, and he cited the names and dates of the papers, in case his readers were interest ed in checking the references. Some accounts were well over 100 yars ago. before the age of airplanes and before very much was known about balloons. The reports of sightings, accord ing to Fort, came from many dif ferent parts of the world from North Carolina, from a ship en route to Bermuda, and a whole spate from the north coast of Eng land.

This raises a questiou which Is difficult to dis cuss, although doubtless Impor tant in many social aspects such as Its relation to divorce as well as in its purely phy sical sense. In letters addressed to this col umn, it is frequently tied with the question as to whether the writer should or should not take injections of male sex hormones. First, it should be pointed out that psychological factors fre quently have as much or more to do witn the problem o: potency as any change in the activity of the sex glands or other physical qualities. Some experts claim that while the activity of the male sex glands does slow up with advancing age, the slowing up is so gradual that one cannot properly speak of a true "change ot life" in man. Others believe that, at least in some men. a decrease in function ing of these glands may come fairly rapidly and produce symp toms which Justify speaking of a male change of life. They believe that men go through this period somewhat later than women do usually between 45 and 55. Perhaps most men do not have any symptoms at all which can Mystery Rocks Pelt Building EVANSVTLLE, Ind. If! For seven successive nights, limestone rocks about the size of a fist have rained down from somewhere onto the tar.l of Lewis Schattin's farm house. Th Schattin farm, five miles north of Evansville, is on level grourd, and stands In the open. Neighbors and curiosity seekers have stood guard at the house and in surrounding fields, yet the rock fall continues from an as yet un known source. Deputy Sheriff Leonard Denton went out Tuesday night and was Just as mystified as the next one. David M. Blgelow, director of education at the Evansville Public Museum, suggested that limestone layers under incinerators some times explode. Lewis thought that interesting, but he has bad no fires on the premises. The shower of rocks continued for more than three hours Tues day night. HERE'S AN AMAZING BUY! NOW at . . .

Some men during this time of life may be restless and complain ot sleeping poorly. Numbness and tingling of the hands or feet is common. Headaches of various kinds are a frequent complaint.

Just as the female sex hormones are helpful In relieving many change - of - life symptoms in women. However, the conservative view Is expressed by one writer, who said "sex hormones should not be administered to men and women of climacteric (change of life) age with the idea of stimulating in creased sexual potency: If this Is the object of treatment, disap pointment will result In the great majority of instances."

The glont 10-enKisw Craft was coming tn for a landing from a test flight when the No. 5 engine, on the right side, caught fire. An explosion, which shook wind ows of beoch residents, followed the fire and then plunged Into the waves in view of hundreds of per sons on the beach. All of the crew were employes of Consolidated Vullee Aircraft Corp., which was modernizing the plane. Convalr said the two lost were: D. H. Franks, the pilot, and W. W. Hoffman, first flight en gineer, both of Ssn Diego. Coast Guard planes rescued four of the survivors and two others were picked up by Navy ships. The rescued all reported recov eringwere Identified as R. W. Adklns, co-pllot; Kenneth Rogers, flight engineer: W. F.' Ashmore, Roy E. Sommers, D. R. Maxlon and W. E. Wilson. All reside here.

In his own acceptance speech two weeks later Stevenson batted a few practice balls into the Re publican kitchen, knocking the dishes around and getting a few laughs. He took a dig at Ihe Republican factions which don't see eve lo eye with ii crnck about "both Republi can parties." Even llioimh he was awav out In a Colorado fishing camp, Elsenhower hit bark that day: "The Democratic party has named its candidates and oilers them to the country on a one-plank platform: Defense of the entire ad ministration record." That was July 36, On July 30. the day he said he was feeling more aggressive all the time. Stevenson went after Elsen hower without mentioning his name. 8ome weeka before the gen eral had said the national budget could be cut 40 billion dollars some time.
